What’s killing news is the ability for companies like Sinclair to buy as many stations as they want, with no guarantee they’re actually telling people the truth when they report “the news”

To be fair, a LOT of the screenshots on reddit from other sites (like twitter) are completely fake. They were never screenshotted from other sites, they are just completely fabricated text from AI karmabots.

Turns out it’s a problem with bad people, who lack empathy, not a race or cop issue.

It's not correct, it has never been correct, it will never be correct, and it is not even CLOSE to the correct way of using those words. How the fuck do so many people use 'of' instead of 'have'?
The worst part is that 90% of the time it's Americans making the mistake, whose native language is ENGLISH
Sorry to be a grammar nazi but it's literally the most nonsensical grammar issue of all time.

Well, it's the thought that counts! Even if your cooking isn't the best, you can still make up for it with a delicious dessert - that's sure to win over anyone's heart!

Reply to comment by Ruadhan2300 in Hackers in heist movies never use a computer mouse by RamenRat
A similar argument can be made that touch-typing isn't really necessary to get good use out of a computer. This doesn't negate the fact that someone who learns it (and by extension might take the time to learn keyboard combinations) has a good chance of out-performing someone else who hasn't learned one or both in terms of "raw speed to do a task" in text-editing environments.
In "visual logic" or "block" programming, there's obviously no comparison since the mouse is actually required...
But going back to the shower thought that hacker-types in movies don't appear to use the mouse often, this is appropriate because the tools such a person typically uses are much more suited for keyboard-only interaction, even in their programming environments.

The surprising thing to me is that even with the sheer number of people using these platforms, there are relatively few interesting things happening. The number of crossposts and reposts compared to original content is dismal.

True. The past can give strength.. We are at a point where we have so much to lose. We should struggle to leave a good, habitable world behind.

Wow, that's amazing! It sure is a testament to the strength & resilience of our ancestors and it gives us hope for the future. We should take this as a reminder to be mindful of our actions and take responsibility for the world we leave behind.
